Item 1.  Consolidated Financial Statements

     The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by
Texfi Industries, Inc. (the "Company"), without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated balance
sheet as of November 3, 1995 has been taken from the audited financial
statements as of that date. Certain information and note disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and

make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

     The consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all

in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
information included. Operating results for the thirteen-week period ended
February 2, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ended November 1, 1996. The following consolidated

         weeks ended January 27, 1995 has been restated to reflect the
         Company's Marion Fabrics greige goods business, as discontinued 
         operations.

5.       Subsequent to the end of the quarter, on March 15, 1996, the
         Company entered into a new credit facility to restructure its existing
         term loan and factor advances. The new credit facility includes a
         revolving debt arrangement and a $19 million term loan. The term loan
         is payable in $500,000 monthly installments over a 30-month period with
         a $4.5 million balloon payment due at the conclusion of the 30-month
         period.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial

         Condition and Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Net sales for the thirteen weeks ended February 2, 1996 increased to
$58,063,000 as compared to net sales of $52,689,000 for the thirteen weeks ended
January 27, 1995. This $ 5,374,000 (10%) increase resulted from increased sales
of finished fabrics ($8,919,000), which were partially offset by reduced sales
of knitted apparel ($2,030,000) and narrow fabrics ($1,515,000).

         For the comparable thirteen-week period, cost of goods sold, as a
percentage of net sales, decreased .1% from 87.7% in 1995 to 87.6% in 1996. The
first quarter 1996 improvement was due primarily to reductions in both variable
and fixed costs at the Texfi Blends division, and to a lessor extent at the
Texfi Narrow Fabrics division.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") decreased from
7.8% to 7.2% as a percentage of sales for the thirteen weeks ended February 2,
1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. The decrease was primarily due to
the Company's continued reengineering efforts which reduced the approximately
25% of SG&A that is not fixed in nature and the Company's increased sales for
the comparable period.

         Interest expense decreased $517,000(16.5%) from $3,131,000 during the
first thirteen-week period ended in 1995 to $2,614,000 in 1996. This decrease is
primarily attributable to a $20 million decrease in long-term debt outstanding
since the first quarter of 1995 as a result of both normally scheduled monthly
installments and application of proceeds from sale of assets related to
operations discontinued in 1995.

         During the first quarter of 1995, the Company recorded a $8,163,000
charge related to the discontinuance of its Highland yarn operations, Jefferson
diaper and corduroy production and Marion Fabrics greige goods operations. This
charge consisted of a loss on operations of $1,244,000 and a loss on disposal of
assets of $6,919,000.

Financial Condition:

         During the first fiscal quarter of 1996, operating activities generated
net cash of $2.9 million. This cash was generated as a result of the $416,000
net income, depreciation and amortization of $2.1 million and the provision for
losses on accounts receivable of $160,000, together with a decrease in accounts
receivable of $2.4 million which offset increases in inventories of $1.6 million
and prepaid and other assets of $500,000. Cash flow from operations, $1.6
million in proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment and cash on
hand provided funds to repay long-term debt of $2.8 million and purchase
property, plant and equipment totaling $2.1 million.

     The Company's business historically exhibits seasonality, primarily due to
temporary plant shutdowns during the Christmas/New Year's holiday season. As a
result, sales have been and were expected to be lower in the first quarter than
in subsequent quarters while working capital requirements increase in
anticipation of higher second quarter sales. Working capital is comprised
chiefly of inventories and accounts receivable. Traditionally, the Company has
maintained financing capacity for working capital and other general corporate
purposes under certain factoring agreements and other comparable short-term
borrowing arrangements. The Company may be advanced funds in amounts not to
exceed 90% of eligible accounts receivable plus 50% of eligible inventories, not
to exceed a maximum of $10 million. The amounts reported on the balance sheets
as "Due From Factor" represent accounts receivable with factors net of advances.
As of February 2, 1996 the Company had approximately $8.3 million of funds
available.

     At February 2, 1996, working capital equaled $2.2 million, a decrease of
$2.0 million from the fiscal year ended November 3, 1995. This decrease in
working capital is due primarily to decreases in cash ($397,000), accounts
receivable ($2.6 million), assets held for disposal ($728,000) and an increase
in accounts payable and other liabilities ($641,000) which more than offset
increases in inventory ($1.6 million) and prepaid expenses ($526,000).

Financial Condition (continued):

         On October 29, 1990, the Company obtained a $40 million credit
facility, which was fully funded. Borrowings under the credit facility bore
interest, at the Company's option, at either prime plus 1% or an alternative
rate based upon LIBOR or CD rates. The facility balance outstanding as of
February 2, 1996 totaling $15.8 million was payable in monthly installments
through the end of fiscal 1997. The credit facility placed limitations on the
Company's rental expense, additional indebtedness, acquisitions, capital
expenditures and sale or disposal of assets. The Company was also required to
maintain a stated amount of working capital and tangible net worth as well as
certain financial ratios, including stated ratios of current assets to current
liabilities and of earnings to fixed charges. As of the end of the first quarter
of 1996, the Company was in compliance with all of the facility's covenant
requirements. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, the credit facility
was replaced with a new credit facility which is described below.

         As of February 2, 1996 the Company has approximately $2.7 million of
its Series C Debentures outstanding. The annual interest rate of these
debentures may be adjusted at the sole discretion of the Company on April 1st of
each year until maturity in the year 2000. On March 1, 1996, the Company set the
Series C interest rate at 13% for the period April 1, 1996 through March 31,
1997. The Series C Debentures are redeemable on April 1st of each year, in whole
or in part, at the option of the holder or the Company for the principal amount
thereof plus accrued interest through the date of redemption. As of March 15,
1996 the last day for debenture holders to exercise their redemption option,
Series C holders with aggregate principal totaling $234,000 had delivered proper
notice to redeem their debenture(s) as of April 1, 1996.

         On September 8, 1993, the Company issued $34.5 million in principal
amount of Senior Subordinated Debentures due August 1, 1999 ("8-3/4%
Debentures"). The annual interest rate of these debentures is 8.75%, payable
semiannually on August 1 and February 1. The 8-3/4% Debentures, which cannot be
called prior to their maturity date, are unsecured obligations but contain
covenants that place limitations on the use of proceeds from disposal of assets
and on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and senior indebtedness (as
defined in the indenture) if such indebtedness would exceed stated ratios of
capitalization and earnings after such incurrence. Under the most restrictive of
these covenants, the Company may not incur


                                       10

<PAGE>


Financial Condition (continued):

additional indebtedness if, after giving effect to such incurrence, the
aggregate amount of indebtedness of the Company would exceed 75% of the sum of
all indebtedness and stockholders' equity. Advances under the Company's
factoring agreements are not considered indebtedness for the purpose of these
covenants. The Company is currently prohibited by this covenant from incurring
additional indebtedness primarily due to the $17.5 million charges to record
discontinued operations in fiscal 1995. The majority of the 8-3/4% debenture
holders consented to the replacement of the Company's credit facility with the
new facility as described below.

         The Company plans to place into service $7.7 million of machinery and
equipment during fiscal 1996. As of the end of the first fiscal quarter, $2.1
million had been expended on machinery and equipment purchases. This equipment
primarily will increase fabric dyeing and finishing capacity as well as expand
knit apparel production sewing capacity. Management anticipates that
approximately $7.3 million of the $7.7 million of equipment will be placed into
service through a committed operating lease line which will not be reflected in
the Company's balance sheet.

         Management believes cash flows from operations and funds available
under factoring agreements will provide the Company with sufficient sources of
funds to meet its 1996 cash needs and assuming no significant deterioration in
market conditions, for the foreseeable future.

         Subsequent to the end of the quarter, on March 15, 1996, the Company
entered into a $74 million credit facility which restructured its existing term
loan ($15.8 million outstanding as of February 2, 1996) and factor advances. The
new facility includes a $19 million term loan payable in 30 equal monthly
installments of $500,000 and a balloon payment of $4.5 million at the conclusion
of the 30-month period. The credit facility replaces the current factor advances
with a revolving debt arrangement which expires on the same date as the final
maturity of the term loan. The facility is secured by substantially all of the
Company's assets. The new credit facility is expected to reduce the Company's
interest expense as compared to the current agreements. The new credit facility
provides for the Company to lock an interest rate based upon either CD or LIBOR
rates plus a 2.75% margin for varying periods not to exceed 180 days. Under the
new interest rate structure, the applicable interest rate which approximate
7.96% per annum based upon CD rates available at the facility's closing.
